Kaki Blue

Haaaa.... I'm Baaaaaccck!!! I love the stage. Yes I have been a bit quiet not because I have nothing to say but it's because I have nothing nice to say... 8-P

Ok I did DanSing Thru Broadway (Lagi Sekali Lah) in February. Got to reunite with the old gang with a few additional casts Zeqthy Natrah, Shahila Johan, Keith Yew and Reefa. We had fun except for the last few days of performance I started to feel irritated with the director whose parents organised the show. Everything that comes out of her mouth just produced a tinge of uneasiness to my stomach. And I'm very sure it was not the food her mother lovingly cooked for us. God bless Kak Sayang!

Ok negativity aside... I might be working with them again for the next DanSing with Sabrina Show.

Jeng jeng jeng... NExt in line is Kaki Blue!!! A musical about the National Service. I will be playing the assistant commandant of the NS camp. At the moment we are being trained like soldiers with the movements and all. I would come home extremely tired but I love every single minute learning the movement n the songs with these zealous casts. I love their energy, I love their innocence, I love it that most of them are newbies at theater and they are being treated like professionals (i.e we get to be screamed at by Joe Hasham Lah! Duhh!) I'm just glad I get to meet these beautiful young actors who are not really sure what they are doing but they are doing it because they love to be on stage. And of course I get to be the funny woman who is the bun of everybody's jokes... But it is all in good fun. Laughter gives me happiness even if they are laughing at me.

The best part about being in the show - I get to work with Joe Hasham. Never worked with him before, never heard of his cursing mouth until now, never seen him turn red until now. He's a lovely man and Dato' Faridah is such a beautiful motherly figure beside him. Gosh! I have never seen them in this light before so it is a very delighful experience for me. Before this I have always thought they were snobbish. Glad my perceptions of them were wrong.

The script is written by Mark Beau De Silva. The first time I read it, I cried really bad. Then I read it again, I bawled my eyes out. I couldn't sleep everytime I read it. Emotionally it is taxing for me but amazingly, I get this powerful energy everytime I see the young casts members during rehearsals.

I know Kaki Blue will be an amazing show. Come and watch this show!
